<p>Hey, so I submitted my app about an hour ago. I got the confirmation from commonapp. com saying that I've successfully sent my supplements and the common app and paid. I still haven't gotten a confirmation from Michigan with my I.D.</p>
<p>My school mails the transcript and recommendations through regular mail, not email. Is this the reason I haven't gotten a confirmation from UM. Will I get it only when my mail arrives in a few days with the recs and transcript?</p>
<p>the official representative said it would take at least 10 business days for the admission office to upload the application material and start your file… i received the U-M ID 2 days after the submission…
so… wait for a couple of days and check back again</p>
<p>A week or after you get your UM ID number which will come after they receive your application, you should be able to create a friend account and login to Wolverine Access.</p>
<p>You are not likely to receive email notification when they process your individual materials, but everything will be on WA in time.</p>
<p>Does it matter how early you send in the app. for EA? (early Oct. vs. mid oct vs. late oct)</p>
<p>I mean, if it takes 10 days to download and begin review of the file and if I sent mine in the last week of October, they would receive it by early November…I believe that this is fine, but would it be a disadvantage to send it so late? (relative to an early-mid Oct. app).</p>
<p>I want to take my time and write awesome essays.</p>
<p>Well… the earlier you send it in, the earlier they start processing it. Its rolling I think so the people that submitted their apps earliest and are liked by the App Committee get in faster than the ones that apply later</p>
